It's A...

BOY!!! Griffin Jacob made his way into the world at 7:43 AM on Wednesday February 7, 2007! He was born via c-section weighing 7 lbs 1 oz and measuring 20 3/4 inches long. He is absolutely beautiful and perfect! Amy is doing great and had no complications whatsoever during the surgery. Parker is already an amazing big brother and loves to smother Griffin with hugs and kisses. I know that Amy will be so excited to share this special day with you when she returns home, but here is a little sneak peek:

Yay! I've been dying all day to see pictures of my new nephew! Congratulations, again guys! He is so beautiful and we can't wait to meet him! And Parker, you are the best big brother EVER! We love you!

Congratulations Again! I've been checking in periodically today waiting for his pictures. He's adorable, and it is such a precious picture seeing Parker take in his baby brother, and seeing Mommy's joy with her two boys. We are so happy for you!~Julie

Welcome Griffin and Happy Birthday!!! You are a beautiful baby boy and I can't wait to see you in person...though it may be a while, since we all only see each other once a year or so! Congratulations Mommy, Daddy and Big Brother Parker!!!

Congratulations, Amy! He is truly beautiful. And the picture of you kissing Parker while holding both your boys made me tear up...what a perfect mama you are! They are lovely photos but I am so glad all is well, all is over...or well, that all has just begun! :-)

Congratulations Amy! Griffin looks perfect. I love the name! (I know a few other Griffins that are absolutely adorable) I can't wait to see him at church. You have the cutest family ever! I'm glad everything went well. What a blessing!

Congratulations Amy, Joel and Parker! Griffin is so precious and Parker seems like such a good older brother already. How awesome that Parker gets to grow up with a brother so close in age!Much love,Tammy

congratulations on the birth of your son! he's beautiful! blessings to you and your family!

Well Amy (Joel & Parker),Not that you will have time to read all these comments just yet but...1-I love the name. It fits really well with Parker and the rest of your clan! 2-I think you will be a great Mom to a 2nd boy. I know that you love boys (and your neices too). God truly knows the best personalities (and genders) to bring to your family. Blessing on all of you on this EXTRA special day.

Griffin is such a little stud. The highlight of my week was the 5 min. or so I had holding him tonight. I could just watch that kid for hours. Your family is so special to me and I'm blessed to be able to share in this moment with you. I love you guys. DD

Amy, you have a beautiful new addition! I can't wait to be home to hold him myself! Don't let him get too big before I do though! I'm so glad that I got to talk to you on the special day! Take care, Love you, Kristen

Amy, and Joel, Congratulations!!! What a sweet baby boy! I love the picture of Parker holding him. Doesn't Parker seem so BIG now? I remember when I had Amanda and Allen brought Andrea up to see us and, O MY GOSH...she seemed so big....Blessings to you and your family!
